Panchang in Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati Language

Panchangam , a Sanskrit word, means 'five limbs', which refers to the fact that every panchangam includes the five basic elements of tithi (lunar day),nakshatra (the constellation the moon is aligned with), karana (half-day), yoga (a particular angle of the sun and moon)and vara or vasara(solar weekday). Panchangams furnish other astronomical information which is extensively used by astrologers, as well as the times of all forthcoming religious events. Most modern panchangams, such as Hindi Calendar, also include Gregorian (Western) calendar information, which has been adopted as the unified world standard. The basic principles of both eastern and western calendars were originally conceived thousands of years ago by great masters in Hindu field of astronomy.
